Start Scared
Start Scared is the podcast for busy mamas who love their kids but feel like they've lost themselves in the chaos of motherhood. If you're ready to rediscover the woman you are outside of “Mom,” even if you're not sure where to begin, this is the place for you.
Together, we'll tackle the lies we tell ourselves, smash through the excuses holding us back, and gain the clarity we need to start showing up for ourselves unapologetically. Because, Mama, you matter—not just as a mom, but as the incredible woman God created you to be.
It’s time to take that first step toward finding yourself again. Are you ready to Start Scared?

233. Loosen Your Grip, Mama: How I’m Learning to Let Go and Live More Freely
If you're a routine loving, checklist-making, control craving mama then this one's for you. 🙋♀️
In today’s episode, I’m sharing how I’ve been learning to loosen my grip on perfection, let go of the pressure to have it all figured out, and find more freedom in the messy middle. I talk about how I used to be ultra-rigid with structure (hi, Enneagram 6 👋), how burnout forced me to re-evaluate, and how saying yes to a last-minute trip taught me more than any checklist ever could.
Whether you're drowning in expectations or just tired of overplanning every detail, I hope this conversation gives you permission to breathe, let go a little, and live more.
